How East Leake compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for East Leake. It is one of 29 Nottinghamshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 8th of 29 for solar yield, a town of 9,421 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 986 kWh per kWp a year, 2.70 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £887 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £640 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to East Leake's own yield, and at East Leake's 986 kWh per kWp it prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery. Your free design call reworks every number for your actual roof, its shading and your usage.
East Leake sits within Rushcliffe, its local planning authority, and the House of Commons Library classes it as a small town.
The charger is in the installed price but left out of payback: charging savings depend on your mileage and tariff, which the design call models properly.

Do solar panels need direct sunlight? Not really, and here is why
No. Solar cells respond to light hitting them, not to a clear line of sight to the sun.

Read the guide →Three phase and EV charging: what actually changes
Three phase buys 22kW charging. Most cars cannot use it, and load balancing usually solves the real problem.

The top export rates are acquisition offers. Here is how to price the condition.
